Further details are included in the below links. More Information: The most recent linked services list is available on the FCA website in PDF format: https://www.fca.org.uk/firms/payment-accounts-regulations/linked-services-list Overview of Requirements: - MaPS need provision of data on products that account for a significant share of the market for payment accounts in order to power a comparison tool; - Each payment account product should have data on the fees and charges associated with each of the linked services; - This data must be provided in a format that the MaPS development team can utilize in the tool, and must be maintained and kept up to date - and must be queryable no less than on a daily basis; - Where possible, further data about the accounts' features and requirements should be made available, to facilitate a good user journey. Statutory Data Requirements: - Accurate and up-to-date data on fees, charges and availability of each of the Linked Services; - Significant part of market provision of this data for Payment Accounts available in the UK; - Basic product information including product name, supplier name & product type. Final Linked Services list (further details on link below): 1. Maintaining the account 2. Arranged overdraft 3. Unarranged overdraft 4. Refusing a payment due to lack of funds 5. Allowing a payment despite lack of funds 6. Direct debt 7. Standing order 8. Sending money within the UK 9. Sending money outside the UK 10. Receiving money from outside the UK 11. Cash withdrawal in pounds in the UK 12. Cash withdrawal in foreign currency outside the UK 13. Debit card payment in pounds 14. Debit card payment in a foreign currency 15. Cancelling a cheque The data MaPS currently uses Beyond the fees identified in the linked services list above, we also display other fees: - Example scenarios for arranged overdrafts (PS500 for 7 days, 30 days, and 60 days) - Maximum Monthly Charge for unarranged overdrafts - Debit card issue and replacement fees - Cash withdrawal limits (if applicable) - BACS, Faster Payments, and CHAPS charges It is also worth noting that alongside the fee, we also require explanatory text for any specific conditions or context about the fee. For example, the cost to maintain an account might be PS0 but only if a customer deposits at least PS1000 per month and has two active direct debits, otherwise the fee is PS2. This explanatory text is very important as it helps users really understand the fee and how much they could be charged. We also use account attributes to allow users to filter their results: - Account type (e.g. current account, premier account, e-money account, etc.) - Account features, including overdraft availability, 7-day switching, and if account is open to new customers - Account access options (branch, telephone, online, mobile app, Post Office) Future plans Looking ahead, we want to expand the tool and show changes in the industry such as: - Cash deposit fees - Additional account features (savings pots, savings sweeps, round up savings, text message alerts, Paym transfers, mobile app security, contactless limits, payment limits) - Geographic restrictions (e.g. accounts only available in Northern Ireland or Cumbria) We would require a provider that can work with us to ensure we are able to meet these changes in industry."
